That is all from us for this game. You can hop tabs to get all the action from the second game of today's double header between Punjab and Hyderabad. Bye Bye!

Mitchell Johnson: "I am enjoying this tournament. Managing to pick up the crucial wickets. On this wicket, we had to vary the pace and it is good to pull off a win tonight. It has been coming off very well for me. I keep my fingers crossed that I continue to do well."

Mitchell Johnson is the Man of the Match:

Rohit Sharma: "All credit to the boys, they have been responding very well with the changes that I make on the field. We didn't get a good start but we managed to get past the line. Now we go back home. A couple of games coming up and hopefully we will continue to do well."

Aaron Finch: "I thought we had a good start and Yuvi and Pandey batted well in the middle. We were short by 20 runs. But I am proud of the fightback that the bowlers put in. We have a couple of days before we meet Kolkata in Ranchi. Hopefully we will do well there."

Aaron Finch: "I thought we had a good start and Yuvi and Pandey batted well in the middle. We were short by 20 runs. But, I am proud of the fightback that the bowlers put in. We have a couple of days before we meet Kolkata in Ranchi. Hopefully we will do well there."

Dinesh Karthik: "It has been a good win for us. It was a tough wicket to bat on. It was important to take your time in the middle and in the end, Rohit and Rayudu helped us win the game with a planned partnership. They bowled a lot of slower ones. It is a tricky wicket and it is good to pull off a win."

Mumbai complete a comprehensive win in the end. With a quick couple of wickets early on, Pune looked like they could repeat their 2012 feat. But Rohit Sharma held one end up nicely and ensured there were no more hurdles in the way. The home side didn't get their act togetehr with the ball in the latter half of the innings. They bowled either too full or too short and that let them down big time. Mumbai have picked up 9 wins now and they are now second in the table. Join us in a short while for the post match presentation.

Harbhajan Singh and Yuvraj Singh have a friendly tussle under the watchful eyes of the on-field umpires.

18.5 Kane Richardson to Harbhajan, FOUR, that is game, set and match for Mumbai. Fuller length delivery outside off stump, Harbhajan puts all his muscles behind that drive and lofts it over the infield and it thuds the ropes on the bounce at deep extra cover

Harbhajan Singh, right handed bat, comes to the crease

18.2 Kane Richardson to Rohit Sharma, out Caught by Dinda!! Well, Dinda has something to cheer at the end of the day. Rohit Sharma goes for the drive and is very unlucky to find short third man as he gets a thickish outisde edge to a full ball outside off stump. A couple of yards either side of the fielder could have been the match for Mumbai. Rohit Sharma c Dinda b Kane Richardson 37(41) [4s-3]

This was another ball on the pads, Pandey makes room and swings it through the line, hits it well but fails to get the desired elevation nor the height. A simple catch to Rayudu at deep square leg.

The players are out in the middle.. We are set for the action to begin. Mitchell Johnson will open the bowling for Mumbai.

So, we finally get the first look of Glenn Maxwell, who was bought by Mumbai for 1 million dollars, the highest bid player of the 2013 auctions.

Rohit Sharma: 'I thought our bowlers did very well in the last few games, hopefully they will continue to do the same today. My form has been pretty good. The wicket looks a bit dry, it might be a good batting surface. We have been batting very well, everyone needs to chip in. Unfortunately, Pollard misses out as he is not feeling well. Glenn Maxwell will make his Indian T20 League debut.'

Aaron Finch: 'We will bat. Looks like a pretty good wicket, we will look to score some runs and defend it. We have not executed our plans in crunch situtaions. The team has been very positive and we are looking forward to end our campaign on a high. We have made 5 changes. Nayar, Dinda, Manish Pandey, Kane Richardson and Ajantha Mendis are back in the team.'

Pune Warriors have won the toss and elected to bat

It is time for part two of the Maharashtra Derby. Pune have lost their last eight games on the trot and they will need a big effort if they have to win over Mumbai. A win for Mumbai will put them in a better position for the knock-outs while a slip-up at this stage could be costly.

Preview

When they met for the first time in this edition, one expected the 'Maharashtra derby' would be an exciting and interesting battle. Instead, it turned out to be an one-sided affair in which Mumbai easily triumphed over their same state rivals. Since then, both teams have come a long way. While Mumbai's journey has been pleasant with great wins and a few scattered defeats; Pune have been on a path of self destruction hitting on a massive losing streak. With the tournament nearing an end and Mumbai sitting comfortably at the top, Pune have an uphill task ahead to upset the stronger team.

PuneLanguishing at the bottom of the points table, Pune have nothing to play for except their pride. They seem like a bunch of talented but uncoordinated players trying desperately to reverse the tide. All they will be hoping to do is upset some big teams in their remaining games and salvage lost dignity.

In form player: Robin Uthappa - In a team with abundant batting problems where most performances have been one-game wonders, Uthappa has emerged as a consistent performer. He has done well to provide Pune a stable beginning in most of their matches. Sadly, however, lack of support from other batsmen have rendered his contribution

Hit: Bhuvneshwar Kumar - One of India's newest finds, Bhuvneshwar is an asset for every team he plays. Although Pune's batting has been very poor, they have found unexpected strength in their bowling line-up. Bhuvneshwar with his calm disposition has been a gem for Pune performing to the best of his ability in most games, albeit in a losing cause. He did quite well in the previous match too, picking up 3 wickets for 25 runs and restricting Kolkata to a modest total.

Miss: Yuvraj Singh - Ex-captain and star player Yuvraj Singh was expected to make it big in this series but has failed to get going so far. It has cost Pune dearly as they find themselves reeling at the bottom. With plenty of single figure scores, Yuvraj has looked off-colour and unsure for most part. It would be wonderful if he clicks and gives his fans at least something to cheer about as Pune play for honour and pride.

Last three matches: Lost to Kolkata by 46 runs, Lost to Rajasthan by 5 wickets, Lost to Bangalore by 17 runs

MumbaiBoasting of a strong batting line-up and a fierce bowling attack, Mumbai is one of the most formidable teams in the tournament. Apart from a few hiccups, their campaign has been going pretty strong. They have been unbeatable at home and will hope to continue their winning run even at other venues.

In form player: Dwayne Smith - Trying several opening combinations in each edition of the tournament has been the usual Mumbai ploy to make something click. With Dwayne Smith, they have found a dependable opener who has come to their rescue on more than one occasion. He has given them decent starts and the team will hope he continues his current form to carry them comfortably to the playoffs.

Hit: Sachin Tendulkar - For days now, Sachin Tendulkar had been facing harsh criticism over his lack of form. He, however, put all the unpleasant talk to rest with a blazing 48 in the previous match. Partnering with Dwayne Smith at the top, Sachin took the role of an aggressive opener and kept the scoreboard ticking. In one Ryan McLaren over, Sachin hit 5 consecutive fours that reflected the brilliance of this little master and brought back memories of a younger Sachin. He also won the Man of the match for that game as the start provided by him helped Mumbai post a total of 170.

Miss: Kieron Pollard - Pollard has been an integral part of Mumbai's famed and star-studded batting line-up. However, this has been a mild year for him with only a few good scores to boast about. He has come good in some matches with quick-fire runs but for most of the part, has been ineffective. He will really need to buckle up and get back to his old ways in case the top order fails.

Last three matches: Won against by Kolkata by 65 runs, Won against Chennai by 60 runs, Lost to Hyderabad by 7 wickets

Head to Head: 5 matches; Mumbai - 4, Pune - 1

Quotes:

Sachin Tendulkar talks about his love for the game - It is not one-way traffic where I give advice and one just keeps on absorbing it. I have learnt a lot from the other guys. The more we discuss, the more I can learn. The passion for the game is still there and I enjoy myself out on the field.

CB Pick: Mumbai - There is no doubt that Mumbai is the stronger one out of these two teams and they would be keen to firmly secure their place in the top 4 and improve their 'away' record.
